There's Gonna Be Trouble

The ref called them both over, they reluctantly came and, sure enough, they both got yellow cards. Although that's better than a maroon shirt about 10 minutes later - he wouldn't come back and when he did he got a yellow card, said something to the ref and got a 2nd yellow (+ a red) and off he went (swearing and kicking chairs out of the way as he went; he was not a happy camper). The club president is a friend of mine and told me this guy later got an 8 week suspension for "threatening the officials"; really makes us wonder what he said to the ref for his 2nd yellow - whatever it was I don't think it was very nice.
